Hi Jeff,

Unfortunatly your file is in .pkkg format.... I can't import via the plugin and the Popcorneditor doesn't recognize it...

I can't import via the plugin and the Popcorneditor doesn't recognize it..

dubble click on "Plasmaglobetut.pkkg" will open a import to the Editor.
After import you will find it in the directorie "LSA/Test/PlasmaGglobeTest"
This you can open with the editor.

Thank you Jlittle for sharing

@HJ
Thank you.

@Jeff
Thank you. Can't wait your other particles!!

Thanks for that! Nice work setting attributes. Comparing your version with the one I made by following a tutorial cleared up attributes subject and how they're bound to functions.
I just wish I have the source for super tools so I can fiddle with them, trying add some missing attributes.

Hi, guys I just wanted to respond to some question.

If you're willing to convert the Static-shield in Iclone format with some setting.... Let's say rotation, scale, translation, changing texture, etc...

mtakerkart yes I will take look at the  static shield and make one for the community. I will also make the plasma ball. I see that jlittle has released his plasma effect also and thank you jlittle for the effect, is this converted for iClone7,
Hello Hj
I hope this answer will at least give you insight since I don't know your programming skill level. All but the most simple effects are comprised of multiple effects.
Every part of the effect has to be changed to work properly in iclone7, every change I make is through code, for every part of the effect.
As far as adding attributes, most of the effects that come with the editor have very few, if any attributes.So when I add my attributes, it is simply me adding what I think I would want in the effect and to have the most customization for that effect I am working on.  I do not expose attributes that already exist, I'm creating them as i go.
So I hope you understand I can not release my code at this time, but if I can help with programming in other ways i'll be glad to.
Hi jasonjbrown.

It looks great, Kevin L..... how did you do it?

The effect was achieved by adjusting the physics settings and other attributes.

Hello Kevin
The code is my problem. I am not abel to use C++. I have a little training in "java script"
May you can show the code for "global translate"  as a simple example

I uploaded it as a PFX package since several users wanted the source code to learn from.

I created that effect from the tutorial and added some of my own attributes but did not test it for movement.
I believe the original tut was mostly for projection onto surfaces and did not address movement.
I'll take a look when I get a chance and see what I can do.

That is because the mesh was only for displaying the inner sphere.
The Attribute Sampler "Source" is used to project the inside position of the particles (which is a sphere).
What you see as the Inner and Outer sphere have no relation to the plasma positions and are just visual items.

What you are looking for is a different effect than what the Plasma Ball was designed to do.

Here is an improved Plasma Sphere that can be moved (xyz) without the particles messing up.
I also replaced the inner sphere renderer with a billboard (was mesh).
